Summary

  • Players now have a harvesting skill gain check on each harvest attempt while using a Resource Map (Ore Map, Lumber Map, Fishing Map, Skinning Map)
  • Resource Maps are no longer affected by the 60 second harvesting lockout resulting from recalling/gating/hiking/moongate travel
  • Players can now find Plant Seeds when harvesting from Resource Maps, with resulting rarity levels significantly higher than Plant Seeds discovered while doing "basic" harvesting
  • Players now have a chance to loot rare resource-hued items from Resource Maps, such as Verite Lanterns, Valorite Runebook Dyes, Avarite Carpet Dyes, Gold Hair Dyes, etc
  • The hue of the rare item will correspond to the specific resource of the map used; players harvesting from Verite Ore Maps / Verewood Lumber Maps / Verehide Skinning maps will potentially get green items (labled as Verite) whereas players havesting from Copper / Copperwood / Copperhide maps will get tan-colored maps (labled as Copper)
  • In the case of Fishing Maps (which has no Resource type), a randomized resource will be chosen for it



Deciphering a Resource Map

  • Deciphering a Resource Map requires the Cartography skill and a Spyglass
    • Double-click the Spyglass and target the Resource Map
    • Spyglasses gain a higher accuracy and success chance when crafted with better quality and materials
  • Click the gem to begin Deciphering a map
  • Once it has been deciphered, a map with the estimated location will appear

  • Use the tool and target yourself to begin harvesting
